Natures Design

I walked by a winding babbling brook, Which reflected like stars the beams of the sun , As they shone on the watery stream having fun, And the ground was all dappled, in shadow and light, Creating a picture of contrasting delight. The day was just meant to be enjoyed to the full As a warm balmy wind rustled leaves in the trees, And a carpet of bluebells, were surrounded by bees, I followed the path that others had worn Past a field with some Lambs recently shorn. I was worried because, of a fox, I had seen, And as if to confirm my worst fears had been right, I came upon a victim hurt in a fight, I tried to get near, but its' fear made that risky, However, it was still alive and was frisky. The rest of the day was spent wandering and free, And for a short while I rested, under a tree, At the edge of the woods, with the sun in decline, I made my way home in a mood quite benign. Thinking how wonderful is nature’s design.
